Hello, can anyone recommend a good fidget toy? I've tried a handful of different types and can't seem to find one that is satisfying. It either makes too much noise or doesn't have a fluid/repetitive enough motion for my likes.
Very curious to hear about everyone's preference!
Growing up, my #1 stim was hair twirling. For whatever reason it was deemed inappropriate behavior and I was disciplined for it in elementary school. That caused me to shave my head in an effort to stop and my stim quickly changed to finger picking. Needless to say my poor cuticles suffer
(I am on holiday, but wife on phone to sister, so...)
I have exactly the same problem and another user here recommended the bike chain stim toy. I can't juggle web pages here on my phone, so search Amazon for "bike chain fidget toy". They look like my photo below. I have loads of them because they are quite cheap and easily lost.
I put on on my finger and use another finger on the same hand to twirl it.
I take it everywhere. It's probably the most useful practical advice that I got here.
Thanks other user! (Not saying who because I think that they are hibernating)
I have one of them coming soon, i ordered it off temu

"Toy Industries of Europe (TIE) bought 19 toys from TEMU in February and found that none of the toys fully complied with EU legislation. 18 posed a real safety risk for children, with hazards including cutting, blockage, choking, strangulation and chemical danger."
